Conversation Status

Prev Next

When you click on the Conversations tab in your top navigation, you'll see a list of Conversations. A Conversation is a direct one-on-one correspondence with a resident. A Conversation can be started when:

  • A resident sends an email to your Conversations email domain.

  • A resident sends a text to your Conversations phone number.

  • You create a message using a Front Desk/Agent channel.

As Conversations appear in the list and as you respond to messages in the Conversations tab, they will be updated with the following statuses:


Open Statuses

  • New: Brand new incoming message from a resident.

  • Waiting: The resident message has been replied to by an organization member and is waiting for a resident response.

  • Needs Reply: The resident has sent an inbound reply to an organization member's response and needs an additional email or SMS.


Closed Statuses

  • Done: When the conversation is complete, click the Close Conversation button, and the thread will be marked as Done. Once a conversation has been marked as Done, it cannot be reopened by organization members: The Conversation Status screen with the Close Conversation button highlighted.

  • Archived: A Conversation will be marked as Archived approximately 4 weeks after being marked as Done.
